Default how long

Hey ! Is there any specific timeframe that a PC can be continuously used without any shutdown or any break. ? Can it be used 24hrs a day? I'm not having any cooler for it? Will it effect the performance of my PC?

Default Re: how long

I assume that by "not having any cooler" you mean that you are not adding additional cooling solutions to your machine and are leaving the stock fans etc. in place? A properly designed computer in a "normal" interior environment can be allowed to run indefinately. Many business and home users do not shut off their computers ... ever. You may , however, find that from time to time a reboot is necessary. You may also have to shut down periodicly to clean the dust etc from your computer.
